Content
This issue is specific to Linux: it depends on the Linux kernel version and we are waiting until the new syscall is available in the C library (especially the glibc). For these reasons, I prefer to open a new specific issue for OpenBSD, since they release the kernel and C library at the same time (different release process): issue #22585. OpenBSD 5.6 scheduled in one month will get the new getentropy() syscall and a new getentropy() function at the same time.
